Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Jacquetta applies client-centered therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the client’s priorities guide the work. This approach helps people who want to explore their values, build self-awareness, and strengthen their capacity for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and reshape unhelpful thoughts and behaviors - it is often helpful for mood concerns, anxiety, and adjustment challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful for managing intense emotions, relationship conflicts, and patterns of impulsive behavior.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jacquetta works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts techniques over time so therapy fits the individual’s life and priorities. This partnership helps ensure the strategies used feel practical and relevant.
Online therapy with Jacquetta is available by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access support from home, while still working with licensed professionals who can tailor care to each client’s concerns and rhythms.
